Measuring your heart rate is critical to the success of your P.A.C.E. Program. Your heart rate gives a clear and accurate picture of your progress. It helps you …

Track Recovery Time.

Your recovery time is a marker for your heart health. If your heart rate doesn’t slow down at least 30 beats in the first minute, you’re in poor shape. If your recovery heart rate slows down more than fifty beats in the first minute, you’re in excellent shape.

Gauge the Intensity of Your Exertion.

Measuring intensity is an important aspect of your P.A.C.E. workouts. Underperform and you won’t get the benefits. Overperform and you’ll put yourself at risk. If your heart rate is less than your target range during exercise, you can speed up or work harder. But if your heart rate is higher than your target zone, you’ll need to slow down.

Determine Whether You’ve Entered the “Supra-aerobic Zone.”

When you finish an exertion period and go into a recovery period, your heart rate should go up a few ticks. This usually takes place in the first 10 to 15 seconds. As your recovery period continues, your heart rate will start to come down. This is a sure-fire way to know you’re doing P.A.C.E. correctly and will help you build a bulletproof heart and powerful lungs.
